Sections 68.30068.318, and portions of 47 CFR  &<Section 68.2 to harmonize them with corresponding sections of  &<Canada's CS03 certification requirements. In its petition, TIA  &<asserts that in the spirit of the North American Free Trade  &<Agreement ("NAFTA"), its proposed amendments will promote barrier &h<free trade between Canada and the United States by the introduction  &P<of similar technical requirements for registration and certification of terminal equipment in both countries.  (#@<In September, 1990, TIA, through its TR41.9 Engineering  &<Committee involved in standards development for user premises  &<equipment, sought to address differences between Canada's CS03  &<certification requirements and Part 68. It established a joint  &h<working group cochaired by Canada and the United States to examine  &<the technical requirements for terminal attachment in each country  &0<with the aim of harmonizing them so that equipment in both  &<countries could be designed to the harmonized requirements and  &<tested one time to show compliance to them. TIA states that its  &x<proposed amendments to Part 68 reflect the results of the working group's effort.  (#P<Interested parties may file comments or reply comments  ?!< &<concerning the petition.
